Confederation of Canada

The Final Confederation 1867

Now we have a nation and country that we now call "Canada"!

Did you know that the representatives in the London conference wished to name our country the “Kingdom of Canada”, but the British feared that such a title would anger the United States, so they settled on the title as “Dominion of Canada” and not “Kingdom”.

On July 1st, 1867, Canada finally became its own nation after all these conferences.

New Brunswick got assurances that a railway would be built in this conference too.

Alexander Galt also demanded protection for the rights of the English minority living in Quebec, and Samuel Tilly and Charles Tupper added more federal subsidies in the Maritime regions.

The Roman Catholic bishops were demanding guarantees protecting the separate Catholic schools in this conference. However, this idea was opposed by the Nova Scotian and New Brunswick representatives. What ended up happening as a compromise was that Catholic schools would be guaranteed in Ontario and Quebec, but not in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick.
